Semi auto's are fun ,but for your first I would go with a bolt ,like the one Tirebob has posted for another member that CZ .Very dependable ,never loaded after you fire it ,you need to cycle another round for it to be loaded in the chamber. Plus a bolt is easy to clean.
Seen guys with years of experience slip up an have a loaded chamber in the rifle after they taken a grouse or something and forget to unload .
The tikka or CZ would be my choice in bolt, my last choice would be a ruger 10/22. There's thousands out there so many must like them, just not my pick.
All the best in your new choice of rifle ,buy good and a 22 can last a very long time .
from a .22 to a non mag tikka's are hard to beat ,they shot very well.
